    Liverpool 23-24: The Long Klopp Goodbye

    I'm having less and less confidence about this transition. I think Klopp did his best to set the organization up in a way that Wenger and Sir Alex never even attempted, but it really seems like so much of this is based on his unique blend of motivation, tactical acumen, and sheer personality. I...

    dirtynine's Digest - The Thread for Kits

    I think you're right. That matching ring on a sleeve can be an incredible detail. This is one of my all time favorite Italy kits (what the fuck happened to you, Nike?), and the collar/sleeve is fantastic.

    Matchday 34- where it feels like the end of the season is coming

    33 of 38 feels a lot farther away than 34 or 38. Choosing between further and farther led to semantic satiation for both words. I don’t recall that ever happening before. Hopefully we all get that from Arsenal and State Citeh losses.

    Matchweek 33 - In which I can’t come up with anything

    I swear EPL refs are trolling us at this point. United just got a penalty off a deflection that is so insane I can’t believe it wasn’t an Onion skit.

    What possible explanation can there be for Barkley not getting booked there?

    Matchweek 33 - In which I can’t come up with anything

    Spurs kicking us off with a showdown against Saudi Arabia. It’s always best to beat state owned clubs, so COYS? I guess?

    Still Not the Super League: Champions League 23/24

    Is he dirty in Germany because he’s English? I have on good authority he wasn’t considered dirty in England because he’s Englandish.

    MW32, in which we’re all Crystal Palace fans

    I haven’t seen the match yet- my 2015s had three outside and one inside and I am utterly barbecued. Reading that it was essentially a repeat of Liverpool domination without a clinical edge suggests it’s not the relaxation viewing I need tonight.

    Brighton are playing way too cute in the back.

    Agreed. But Paul Tierney saw it and described it correctly so VAR assumes it’s not clear or obvious. Or something. That’ll be the justification, anyway, when PMGOL affirms the call.

    De Bruyne from Del Piero’s office…

    Looking forward to Palace looking like they have a shot for 45-60 minutes and then getting absolutely buried in the last half hour.
